Example #1:
Raindrops on maple twigs, sketched in Poulsbo, Washington. My brother-in-law loaned me his red editing pencil for the color detail and I was so glad to have it.
Example #2:
Took the Bolt Bus to Bellingham a few weeks back, and got these doodles during our layover in the International District of Seattle.
As you might guess from the red lanterns in the tree, it was right about the time of the lunar new year. I had only packed two pencils--a black and a white. Luckily my husband had a red ballpoint pen with him, because that little scene really needed its splash of color!
Hi Katura. I am still very impressed with your work on toned paper....and limited color. And in this case the serendipity of the missing 'red' appearing from other sources was ideal!
ReplyDeleteSometimes these unplanned moments of rescue--the lucky red ballpoint pen that was there just when you needed it--make the memories behind a sketch all the more fun, huh?
